Marinette's POV:
My sewing machine whirred as I added the last of the finishing touch ups to Alya's dress, it was our first ever high school dance and I was over the moon. My dress was hanging in my closet waiting to be put on but making the final touches was more important, at least when it came to making Alya's dress perfect. I designed her dress to be far more daring than mine, the bodice plunged into a deep v neck of deep purple tulle. The skirt billowed down in torrents of eggplant to lavender tulle into this full swishy beast.
"Marinette this dress is amazing, you really outdid yourself."
"Well you have to look amazing if you're going with Nino, you guys are the sweetest couple." Alya laughed and checked her phone "Hey the guys just got there." I nodded and gave her dress the final once over to make sure nothing was out of place.
"Stop worrying about me and get yourself ready." She was right, if we wanted to be on time I had to get ready too. Alya was curling her hair which she had dipped in purple to complement the dress, I slipped my dress up under my robe and zipped it up before slipping the robe off my shoulders.
"Oh my gosh Mari, you look stunning." I styled my dress after Ladybug, hoping that by channeling my secret identity I would be able to have some of the confidence to finally talk to Adrien.
"You think so?" I smoothed my hands over the red silk draping down from the corset bodice. "Can you help me with the back?" Alya spun dramatically towards me, "of course girl!" She made sure to make the lacing tight enough that I wouldn't have to worry about the bodice falling down but loose enough I could still breathe and eat comfortably. We gave ourselves one more look in the mirror before climbing down the stairs. My mom and dad were sitting in the living room watching the evening news, they turned away to look at us.
"Oh you ladies look lovely." My mom stood up and grabbed our little camera we only used on special occasions. "I can't believe how grown up you girls look," I threw my arm around her shoulders and held her while she shed a tear or two. Dad came over and clapped us all into a big bear hug and told us the limo was pulling up downstairs. "We better get going then, I'll call you when I'm on my way home mom." I gave my parents a kiss on the cheek and headed downstairs after Alya, I picked up the hem of my dress as I descended down into the bakery.
The limo ride to the school was full of Alya chattering away about how excited she was to see Nino in a suit since he never dressed up, all I could think about was seeing Chloe all over Adrien.
"Girl, stop fretting so much. You're going to have a blast whether or not you get your moment with Adrien. You can dance with me and Nino." I laughed.
"I guess that's true."
"Hey look Nino came outside to meet us." We pulled up to the gates of the garden and sure enough he was standing just outside the ballroom at the Paris hotel. He was in a fitted deep blue suit with his headphones strung around his neck and his red cap on over his mask, wait why was he wearing a mask?
"Alya you look stunning, so do you Marinette, totally love the dresses." Nino managed to sputter out only for Alya to give him a gentle kiss on the cheek.
"All thanks to Marinette, she slaved over this thing, speaking of which did you bring the things like I asked?" Nino pulled out a slim black box and handed it to Alya.
"You'll need this." I extended my hands to receive the gift as she opened her purse and pulled out a black lace mask which she tied into her curls. I slid the ribbon off the box and flipped open the lid where a stunning Venetian style mask sat on top of velvet, it was a deep red to match my dress with black rhinestone placed to look like spots of my ladybug suit.
